Sonam Kapoor

The Twitter world is quite a busy one, and Bollywood contributes a great deal to it. Here's looking at the best star tweets of the day.

Sonam Kapoor's a foodie. And totally proud of it. Her current craving is for Uncle Chips!  A few hours ago, she tweeted in response to a friend's update of Hogging Uncle Chips. 'Worlds Best #Chips!' She then asked the tweeples, 'Does anyone know if you get uncle chips in chandigarh?'

A fan said, 'ofcourse you would.. its chandigarh not some remote area!' to which Sonam retorted.  .You don't get it in mumbai either #touchy'

She even tweeted to the extent she goes to get her chip fix: 'I beg people coming from delhi to get it for me. #itsthebestchipsever'.

Also explaining to her fan in Madrid: 'they are a brand of chips you get in india. Addicted to em! try the spicy treat!'

Gul Panag

Gul Panag is mad at Gmail. The actor tweets, 'No matter how many mails I answer I always have unanswered mails. And that's on my phone - which only has last 25 mails from diff accounts. Let's not even begin to talk about the 3k odd unanswered makes on the gmail server. And I am using 92% of my gmail storage. #fml. Whatever happened to Gmail's motto- so much storage you'll never have to delete another mail??!! Yeah right.'

And then she put out her plea. 'Dear God, please give me someone who will diligently answer my emails, especially @gul4change ones.Must be humorous , cute and male. Thanks.'

This girl and her sense of humour. We like!

Ajay Devgn

Ajay Devgn who tweets occasionally is buzzed with his next film. He tweets, 'Work on Toonpur never ends. Dubbing in progress, I think I will lose my voice by the end of day. I spoke to my Devtoons again today. Dubbing for toonpur is an experience.'

Abhishek Bachchan is on a city tour after Ahmedabad and Kolkatta. He mutters: 'Bengaluru here we come! Heading to the PVR Forum for some press work. Guess it's popcorn for lunch... not that I'm complaining.'

Shilpa Shetty

We like the way Preity Zinta plays up her moral and social quotient. She tweeted, 'On World Aids day I want to appeal to u all today not to fear HIV. Just be safe, use protection and do not stigmatize people living with HIV. Mother-2-child transmission of HIV really upsets me. We shud B able 2 protect every child frm HiV!Less ignorance & more awareness is needed!'

Fellow IPL team owner Shilpa Shetty is also thrilled about the way the law is proceeding. She tweets, 'Just landed frm Bangkok.Thrilled to bits with the news of the Stay order in favour of RR.Awaiting full arbitration process to be completed. Had complete faith in the Judiciary and haven't been let down..Thanku all for ure support,love n prayers:)There is a GOD nd I love him:) :) '

Director Shekhar Kapur puts out his stand. 'Sarah Palin compares Wikileaks founder to Al Quaeda and Talban.I think he should get Nobel Prize. People deserve the truth. A lot of careless words u read on wikileaks r colonial attitudes of western diplomats unwilling to accept shifting world realities.'

Well, message them what you think!

Dia Mirza

He's an intelligent man is a known fact and we love the way Rahul Bose expresses his current stint in his home in the mountains. He tweets, 'Perfect formula for equilibrium - Hiked two hours in the morning. 45 min squash in the evening. Hot gulab jamuns at night.'

He earlier described the moment well when he said,'In my home in the mountains. Tata sky. Tata el classico. Brilliant blue cloudless sky. Crisp november turning to december cold. Morning sun. Birds and dogs. Train sound from mlles below.'

Following suit is Dia Mirza who tweets, 'Looking for quiet :) craving to spend a day alone. No conversation, no interaction. Just pure me time. Quiet, your invited ;) Twitter might add to the sounds in the head but it also tends to make music in the heart :)'

Bollywood praise!
